    Brexit, for once some facts.

    As a frequent visitor to the capital, I marvel at the way the people moving business works. My preferred method of getting about is by train into Liverpool St then my day travel card gets me around wherever I want to visit. With the senior railcard discount, much of the pain is taken away. On...

    Carillion isn't over yet and there is a good chance that the taxpayer will end up paying out lots of money once again for the failures of private enterprise. Worse, there may well be more to come as in this: More of the story here: The sharks are circling... there is also the £44.9m...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    If the UK remains in the EU, there is an excellent chance that the NHS will survive and prosper. If, however, the tory plans to crash out (I can't see any other way, right now), materialise, then the NHS will disappear forcing everyone to provide their own insurance-based health cover, mainly...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Oh, you give far too much credit to the tory party! Their politicians believe they have a god-given right to run the country and collectively, they are completely incapable of such deep thought as you suggest. Their main objective is to crush the plebs into complete submission and increase the...

    Now, Tony B-liar knows more than most about lying so maybe he is correct to describe the allegation against him by Michael Wolff as absurd.

    The calls for gun control in the USA grow stronger each day and more well-known celebrity figures are stepping forward to criticise Trump. I am no fan of Stephen King's work but he doesn't seem to like the direction of Trump's Presidency: One of my American friends described Trump's recent...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That seems to me to be a very reasonable proposition and it is high time the right to free speech was reviewed by the judiciary in order to clarify the difference between the right to speak one's mind and the public telling and distribution of deliberate lies. You are right, of course, about...
